Cross Training for Fitness



Really great workout
This workout sneaks up on you. It is definitely do-able and not intimidating, but it works you out. You will sweat and get a great workout. I have done this video twice, and I am surprised that I definitely feel a bit sore all over the next day, since the toning is all done without weights. Jessica has some very unique moves that work the muscles. I especially feel it in my triceps and legs. The cardio, led by by her husband, will elevate your heart rate but not leave you breathless. It's just a fun workout, and I like the 15 minute segments, since I cannot always dedicate a whole hour at a time to a workout, but usually can fit in that amount of time (or more) if I break it into shorter segments throughout the day.

Love It! Surprisingly Challenging!
I put this DVD in on a Sunday morning expecting to get a calm, light workout - that was not the case! Although the whole mood of this video is very calm and relaxing, it was quite the challenge! I did the whole thing in its entirety, which clocks in at 75 minutes! The workout can also be broken into 5 15-minute segments, which is nice, so I can pick and choose which ones I want to do when I am pressed for time. Both of Guillermo Gomez's segments are fun cardio kickboxing workouts. I found them fun and easy to learn on the first try. I broke a sweat, but they didn't leave me out of breath. A beginner could pick these up easily. Jessica Smith's segments were the surprise! I am a huge fan of her workouts, and her segments do not disappoint! They were challenging, and more on the intermediate side. Her first segment is full body toning (no weights) and the second is core toning (also no weights). They were tough and I am feeling the burn in all of my muscles the day after...

great variety of workouts!
Amazing DVD! I can keep alternating which workouts I do together inorder to keep my body challenged. I must also add that every workout in this dvd is challenging and I absolutely love the restore and relax segment to end any of my sessions :)
